i've been having trouble posting all weekend. i don't know if it was a problem with Blogger or if it was something on my end at home, but i had a nice long rant written about Governor Keating, who called Tulsa 'dumb' because his wife didn't win the Republican primary for the District 1 Congressional race (here's the article). off course, it was a primary race, so he must have meant that District 1 Republicans were dumb, but being the partisan lapdogs that they are, the city and county GOP leadership have been making excuses for him ("he's just emotional"). this is the same governor who said that the best way to deal with the Oklahoma Education Association was "homicide."

as for his wife, Cathy, she didn't actually lose the primary. with no majority winner, she with 30% of the vote, and John Sullivan with 45%, were to have a runoff next month. Cathy announced on Friday that she was dropping out. instead of being a loser, she's a quitter.

so long, Cathy. it looks like Frank will have to whore you out another way to get to DC.
